A list of chores is pinned on the refrigerator for me to complete before my mom gets home from work. I have vacuumed the carpet, cleaned my room, and swept the floor, but my least favorite chore remains: washing the dishes. It would be quick and easy to stick the filthy dishes in the dishwasher; however, the dishwasher is broken. Instead, the mountain of food-covered dishes will have to be scrubbed clean by hand. I will have to prepare the supplies, scrape off the remaining food, rinse and dry the dishes, and put them back into their correct spot in the cupboards and drawers. Washing the dishes is a messy and burdensome process every household must suffer through, unless they want to eat off of paper plates for the rest of their lives.

Then, I place the rinsed off dishes in the other side of the sink. After the plates, glasses, pots, and pans are scrubbed clean, rinsed off, and placed on the other side of the sink, all that is left in the sink is dirty water and silverware. The murky water with floating chunks of the mysterious substances make seeing the spoons, forks, and knives a challenge. To avoid the sharp knives hiding at the bottom of the sink like a shark waiting to attack, I slowly feel along the edges of the sink until I can safely pick up some silverware. Thankfully, I have not yet lost a finger in the process of cleaning the

Use a soft to medium-bristled brush to work at the area, taking care not to spread the mess. Sop up the solution with a cloth and dip your brush back in the water, reapplying and repeating. This treatment may remove some light stains if they have not yet had the chance to set.
In America, knives, forks, and spoons are necessary tools people have in order to function properly everyday. Without cutlery, people would continue to eat with their dirty, bacteria covered hands, slurping and licking their way through their meals. People would drink bowls of hot soup, maul steak like a feral dog stealing his first bone in weeks, and scoop large chunks of ice cream with frostbitten fingers. Like most individuals in the world, I never put too much thought into how important a spoon was until I needed it. I especially did not care where my family’s flatware came from or how they were created, as long as it was in the cabinet when I wanted to grab a quick bite to eat. Unfortunately, no one cares about a spoon, a fork, or
